Santa Monica College Moral Panic Discussion

 

I’m working on a social science test / quiz prep and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

What is a “moral panic” and how does it lead to the expansion of policing? Explain in reference to Stuart Hall’s account of “mugging” in England, and the War on Drugs in the United State
